Today, more
people than ever are overweight and concerned over appearance and
health. Do you hate your weight? Don’t let frustration over extra
pounds cause you to go fad programs that don’t work or may be
dangerous. Choosing Dr. Engel as your medical weight loss specialist
will not only speed up results but will also insure that your health is
closely monitored.

If you have a related illness, such as diabetes, high blood pressure,
arthritis or other diseases, you need a physician to plan and monitor
your diet along with prescribed medications, if needed. If you are
insulin resistant, you may find that no matter how hard you try, you
still can’t shake the pounds off. Dr. Engel, both a medical internist and a bariatrician, can help you.

If you already have a doctor, Dr. Engel will provide you with a weight
loss program and medication, if indicated, keeping in contact with your
personal physician.

“…dieting
programs change over time and as patients adjust their weight. There is
not one program, but many adjustments that create weight loss momentum.”
